Poile says this is "shocker" and "bizarre" situation. Not able to get Vesey, family and representation to meet together in past week or so.

Despite Anti-Alberta Aardvark's expert scouting, I've been impressed with what I've seen of Valiev

You realise 75% of Canadians are not on the Alberta bandwagon.. if you sympathize with with their cause you are worse than a trump supporter...

What's the tampering?

Hiring his Dad?

It's a year. He'll be fine if the hype is real.

Poile's a baby.

Button (in know, I know) had him,like 9th best prospect. If he's anything remotely close to that then he could be a nice pickup.

@AdamVingan: Poile said the reasoning he received was "It was just the attraction of free agency." Poile called it a "complete 360."

Grasping at straws. Simply employing his dad does not constitute tampering. They'd have to prove that the father gave him advice that led to him signing with the team. I can't imagine that the player or the father would offer up such evidence.

That would be weird. What about brothers like the Staal's?

Even that would be a stretch, being how its his old man, who wants him to play for the Laffss

Didn't Mike Reilly do the same? What was the Wild's punishment?

Wasnt the writting on the wall when the Leafs hired his dad?

They should give Matthews dad a ring and see what he can contribute to the organization.

Signed with the team his dad works with, no penalty.


Cause it's not the leafs. if he signs with Boston, everyone be like "tampering, what tampering"
